Our take on Koira
The defining detail is the puppy partnership: progress combines forest puzzles and hunter evasion with feeding, care, and play, making the rescued animal an active part of the journey.
What is Koira?
Koira is a hand-drawn adventure about protecting a rescued puppy while searching for a way home.
The journey crosses groves, snowy hills, caves, and other parts of a musical forest. Players solve ancient puzzles, activate mysterious monuments, and use stealth and bravery to evade hunters. The puppy is a central companion: players feed it, care for it, and play together while traveling. The pair also meet woodland creatures and help restore an ancient forest. Their journey involves supporting each other through danger and exploring varied forest environments as they seek a path home.
